Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I ordered this phone from amazon, since I have thought it would be different from the ones sold on ebay. However, I was wrong. Firstly, the phone is black version indeed not silver as amazon posted on their website. At this price, the phone comes in an open box not film-sealed.
The included SD card is without nokia logo while in a brand phone kit it should be. Although there's no scratches on the phone, I know it's not a brand-new item. It's just a rufurbished or re-assembled phone that you can buy from ebay.
Finally, I realized that this is a discontinued nokia cell phone 2-3 years ago. And since it's a so hot model then, there should be no brand-new stocks for sell now.
I asked amazon for returning and a full refund. I was transfered to their cell phone department. Although there's a little unhappy things, amazon credit back my money at the end.

The phone also sports stereo speakers capable of producing 3D surround sound, and keys placed on the side of the device control volume and the camera's 8x zoom capability.

You can even choose videos and photos to identify incoming callers. And of course, if you want to be discreet, there's a vibrating ringer mode.
Conference calling is supported (up to five users), and the phone sports a built-in speakerphone so you can talk hands-free. Voice dialing is supported, as are voice commands that make it easy to operate the phone with the sound of your voice.
